Thailand is ramping up its military presence in the disputed area along the border with Cambodia but the army insists the use of force will be the last resort.
The military rumblings come as the spat over the presence of national flags in the disputed zone continues, with Cambodia refusing to remove its national standard from Wat Keo Sikha Kiri Svara inside the contested area and Thailand erecting its own in response.
Wat Keo Sikha Kiri Svara is the Cambodian name of the temple known in Thailand as Wat Kaew Sikha Khiri Sawara.
The Thai flag is said to be bigger and stands taller than the Cambodian one.
